Jamahl Lolesiâ€™s all-action performances in his three with the Huddersfield Giants have firmly established him as a fanâ€™s favourite at the Galpharm Stadium. Dubbed â€˜Jammer the Hammerâ€™ by the Fartown faithful, Lolesi has proved versatile by playing at second row and centre. The New Zealander has scored 20 tries in 49 appearances for the Giants since coming to England. The Giants have tried to capitalise on the marketability of Lolesiâ€™s moniker, on occasions handing out hammers to young fans. Starting his career with Canberra Raiders, Lolesi has won the NRL Championship twice in a row with Canterbury Bulldogs (2004) and Wests Tigers (2005). In total he scored 222 points in 134 games in Australia before signing for the Giants. â€˜J-Loâ€™ has played in one test for New Zealand, scoring four points.
